high value low-carbon silica
The HydroSil process generates high-value, low-carbon silica as a co-product, with a significant carbon footprint reduction (~50% less CO₂ compared to conventional silica).
Silica is produced in two forms: pyrogenic silica (during green silicon production) and coproduct silica (after hydrogen release), targeting industries such as elastomers, tires, food, feed, paints, and coatings.
The process is highly efficient: for every 1 kton of hydrogen released, 18,7 ktons of silica are generated, with minimal energy input (5 kWh per kg of low-carbon silica).
The silica product is positioned as a sustainable alternative in a market with strong demand for green materials and few current suppliers.
